Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nautilus
If I try to run an application by double clicking it in Nautilus and the
application for some reason fails to start I get no error message. If I
try to run the same application in the Terminal, I always get an error
message such as "Segmentation fault (core dumped)", "error while loading
shared libraries: xxxxxx.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory" or "./a.out: Permission denied". Without an error
message it is impossible to tell what went wrong and if the application
did something or not. Nautilus should show the error messages too. Even
better it should give a solution to the problem such as offering to
install a missing package or asking if the user want's to give the file
execute permission.
